Automated Backups / cron.php

Automated Backups / cron.php

Hello everybody.

I have a problem with automated backups if I run it by schedule OR with cron.php. It just shows me Error in status.

It starts and takes NO time at all (takes time like echo "error").
After I run it, I go to logs, and all I see is a list of my courses with red Error infront of them. NONE of courses are getting backed up.

If i try backing up a course manually, it works.

It worked once for me through schedulet backups as well. But the biggest course was not complete, and the rest didn't even start (same red Error infront of them in Logs).

I increased the PHP.ini runtime variable and all, but still can't get it to work.

Already tried deleting all entries from backup tables.

Still nothing. Please help.

Hamid, you could try patching in some  ' mtrace("message") ' calls in /admin/cron.php to check how far things are going.  Also in /backup/backup_scheduled.php which is called from cron.php

Then you might have more information to help diagnose the problem.
